"what?" grace asked.
"just wanted to see what you're doing," ella said as she came into the bedroom. "is that my dress?"
"no.." grace lied, continuing to put on her mascara.
"it is! if you rip it, so help me god i will murder you in your sleep." ella growled.
"relax. i just needed a drsss for my date tonight." grace said.

"his name is brendan, and yes, i do have a date with him." grace stood up and showed ella.
"what do you think?" grace asked.
"i think you look hot. you should totally dress like that all the time." ella complimented.
"never again." grace chuckled. her phone buzzed and she picked it up, seeing brendan had texted her.
"brendans here. i have to get going." grace said.
"wait!" ella ran to her bedroom and came back with a small white clutch.
"take this. trust me. there's extra lipgloss, bandaids, pepper spray, and condoms cause you know." she smiled.
"thanks." grace said cautiously. she put her phone in the clutch and smiled.
"ready." grace said. ella walked behind grace, making sure she got into the car safe.
brendan noticed grace come out of the apartment and he got out of his car. he opened the car door for grace and helped her in.
"you look beautiful tonight." brendan said.
"thanks." grace smiled.
"take good care of her! and make sure she's home by eleven!" ella yelled to brendan. he smiled and nodded his head.
"ignore her. she's just jealous that im the first one to wear this dress." grace lied.
"im glad you wore it. you look amazing." brendan complimented.
the drive to the restaurant was quiet and it made grace nervous. brendan noticed how nervous she got so he made small talk.
"what's your book about?" he asked.
